Description

Please note: this course takes place every Saturday, 2:00 - 5:00pm, from 12 May - 30 June (eight weeks). It is strongly recommended that students do not miss the first or final class, or miss more than two classes in total. Fee is for the full course. All participants will be invited to showcase their skills at a student show at the end of the workshop series, scheduled for 7:00pm Wednesday 4 July.

This course is an introduction to the concepts and skills of improvisation explored through games, exercises and discussion in a safe, friendly and playful environment. ImproMafia is proud to have taught impro to everyone from academics to models for over eight years!

You will learn techniques to:

Relax and allow your ideas to flow

Trust your creative impulses

Be present and stay in the moment

Listen and attend to others

Accept and build on ideas

Work collaboratively with others

Deal with and even embrace inevitable mistakes

This course is a great way to try something new, bring laughter and play into your life and expand your comfort zone. Students take our courses for pure fun, to try a new hobby, to improve confidence in public speaking, work presentations, stand-up or acting, or simply to unleash their creativity.

Spontaneity is the first stage of the ImproMafia workshop program. It requires no prior improvisation or performance experience. The maximum class size is 16 to enable individual attention as well as the opportunity to learn by watching others.
